Been shit for quite a while but today he was even worse. Fecked up absolutely everything bar the pen. Hilarious stuff.

On another note: Marlon was pretty good for Sassuolo.

Now if CBs can figure out a way to defend his headers in CL KOs, this dude will become completely irrelevant.

All of his goals v Atletico and Ajax were pens or headers. He doesn't have the legs to create separation for open play goals v good-elite teams anymore.

Don't forget the half a yard bulldozer for Portugal the other week.

He's not effective without playing for a Madrid team set up to create him chance after chance, or playing for Portugal against part timers.

Sarri doesn't suit him either. He's used to managers playing to his strengths by lumping in crosses all game. Sarri is more keep ball and open teams up.

He relies a lot on his off incredible off the ball positioning to be effective these days.

But it seems teams are starting to figure it out on that end. He's just not effective outside the box anymore as he once was.

Teams haven't figured it out.

His service has been diminished and he's declined with age.

Not much more to it.

There was a post on the Juve forum that posted the stats that the problem is he's gone from 10+ chances a game at Madrid to 3 or 4 at Juve. He's not the great finisher he's made out to be, it's his relentless.

And while he scores all these goals a good percentage are free hit Penaldo's that he either didn't win himself, or dived for.

The biggest losers of all this BDO shiz are Juve fans because you know this guy is not going to leave until he gets the 6th now :lol:
